A Learning Access Plan (LAP) is developed in partnership with an Accessibility Adviser. Your plan is tailored to you, supports your needs and establishes how ECU can provide assistance for you to access and participate in your studies.
Your LAP will outline reasonable adjustments that you require to undertake your studies, based on the evidence you provide as well as your report of how your disability impacts you. The LAP also provides an opportunity for you to share information about your disability or circumstances with academic staff, should you wish.
In addition to individual Learning Access Plans, Access and Inclusion offer a range of programs and resources for students, including tailored workshops, specialist mentoring, neuro-divergent TEAMs channel and sensory spaces.
We have a number of FAQ pages with further information about the Access and Inclusion service and/or Learning Access Plans.
